Match Threads Spurs vs Ajax - Match Thread - Semi-final 1st leg

[dondo]

Ladies and gentlemen. Your champions league finalists

Still better than the Liverpool 2005 team

The formation the club posted looks like Rose at CM alongside Wanyama?

What a kick in the balls for dier

Place is already buzzing

Don’t know how you all cope; I’m 300 miles away in Cornwall and you could churn butter in my guts

Kicking off outside the west stand

Hopefully nothing too drastic?

Last thing we need is shit publicity & sanctions from UEFA (you just know they'd throw the book at us).

this isnt going to be a spurs over the top ball game with chasers. i expect trips and rose to get forward with plenty of width, and get those balls into llorente. Moura and alli on the end of the knock down.

Come on, guys & gals.

I understand the nerves but the game hasn't even started yet & people are already starting negativity about Llorente.

I know he's not Kane or Son, but he's pretty much all we've got, CL football is more suited to his game & he has the experience of this sort of occasion that practically no outfield player in our squad has.

He could turn out being more vital than any of us realise right now.

Good post and its up to us fans to give him the confidence to do big things by cheering everything spurs do tonight. Give the players that boost they need to get over the line.

Sissoko to come on 85th minute and score a bicycle kick...

He's saving that for the final.

@riggi or @ShaunL84 ?

Whatever happens, whether we win or lose, I'm proud of this team. For all the obstacles they've faced this season, world cup hangover, injuries, stadium, no signings, minutes away from being out in the group stage, being written off at every stage, not even being touted as top 4 this season or last or the season before, we proved the doubters wrong every-time, I'm proud of our Spurs

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

Getting this far is incredible. Whatever happens tonight, it’s been one fuck of a ride. Enjoy it, everyone

 

[fluffybunnyuk]

do we think VAR will have an impact on this game? or will it be controversy free?

 

[belsunz]

Sissoko to come on 85th minute and score a bicycle kick...

more likely scenario: Sissoko coming on 85th minute, bombing forward on the counter, overpowering Ajax player zfter Ajax player, arriving in the penalty area and... miss-hitting his shot.

(Still love him. Such a shame he’s not fit enough to start the game.)

 

[hellava_tough]

Going to the pub soon to watch this

Reckon it's 50/50 in my mind. Just hope we don't give away our trademark howler after 4 minutes

Anyway...

...COYS!!!!!!

Looking at some clips of ajax’ way to the semi final - my god, they play beautiful football!

 

[SEANSPURS1975]

If our team play like we know they can we will beat Ajax tonight. Confident??
COYS!!!!!

I didn’t have a clear view as I was watching it from inside the west stand but saw a few bottles thrown by spurs. Police were keeping the Ajax fans away and then a group of spurs went to intercept them down Whitehall street.

Police went chasing round there

A bit of Dele shit housery required to break it up.

 

[belsunz]

I predict an epic performance from Dele. I feel it in me old bones.

He has a tendency to score in big games, usually after playing poorly. Just saying. I am NOT the three-eyed raven...

Announcer said and the spurs substitutes and cut the mic. Even he couldn't believe it
